The BC Animal Food Bank has raised more than $25,000 in donations for groups on the ground in Ukraine and surrounding countries like Poland and Romania that are seeing an influx of refugees.

These range from animal shelters in desperate need of supplies, to groups going into Ukraine to rescue animals left behind, to people delivering necessities to those who stayed in Ukraine with their pets, to others working to make sure refugees aren’t separated from their animals when crossing borders.

Now that families with furry four-legged members in tow are arriving in B.C., the BC Animal Food Bank says they’re putting some of the money raised aside specifically to help refugees provide for their pets.
